        Not only that but I remember that time he hit that poor Hawthorn player in 1997 and got off with only 1 week.
        Quite the mecenary too I believe, took the big money from a new start up club the moment it was offered to him.

        He may or may not also be a passing aquaintence of James Fantasia

            Bet he fires McCartney and hires Leon Cameron as his mate/coach. It's bloody nepotism gone mad.

                I know, even went back to CHB from FF because he got sick of taking hangers over defenders and kicking goals. Are we sure he's the right man for the job?
                But then again, I'm an Internet poster and Bevo is a premiership coach so draw your own conclusions.

                    Then in this debate you seem to be a a windless sock !!
                    At the start I agreed and thought this may be more of an appointment to get Grant back to the club.
                    But unless you have been hacked your statements have been quite irrational and totally not deserved .

                            Woo Hoo! Welcome back Turtle - I'm sure he brings a wealth of footy knowledge - I think he played a couple of games, didn't he?

                                Leave him alone, he's feeling all sensitive and lonely and wants to be noticed.

                                    Off hand you have Thompson at Stkilda, Dunstall, Smart and a few others who are directors at their clubs. Great to have him on Board

                                        Or maybe I was just amusing myself by making some specious arguments against why one of our club greats shouldn't be appointed, mainly because I'm bored by the off season. Sorry if I actually offended anyone.
                                        I'm pretty sure I've rarely made any arguments here just to be noticed in near on 4 years, nor have I made too many assumptions about other people's feelings.

                                            Yes yes amusing yourself on a public forum, I know you were taking the piss as evidenced in my earlier post so I decided to as well. There's no need to defend yourself now you were on a roll.

                                                Just saw on the channel 7 sports news Chris Grant to start tomorrow at the club as Director of football.

                                                Good on him.
